Abstract：
:Ultraviolet A radiation participates in cytotoxicity and carcinogenesis of the skin by a mechanism involving the generation of reactive oxygen species. Endogenous antiradical defense systems utilize metalloenzymes including Se-dependent glutathione peroxidase and Cu and Zn superoxide dismutase. The aim of the present work was to determine the protective effect of two trace elements, Se and Zn, on cultured human diploid fibroblasts exposed to UV-A radiation (broad-spectrum source with a maximum intensity at 375 nm). Selenium in the culture medium (0.1 mg/L) in the form of sodium selenite increased the synthesis and activity of glutathione peroxidase by 60.5% in the absence of exposure to UV-A radiation and by 35% after irradiation with 5 J/cm2 (P = 0.043). The presence of this element significantly increased the survival of UV-A-irradiated fibroblasts (P < 0.0001). This confirms the essential role of Se in the detoxifying activity of the enzyme. In addition, thiobarbituric acid-reacting substances (TBAR), which are lipid peroxidation markers, decreased in the presence of exogenous Se: -19% and -22% without irradiation and after irradiation with 5 J/cm2 (P = 0.056). When Zn was added at the dose of 6.5 mg/L as ZnCl2, fibroblasts subjected to oxidizing stress induced by UV-A were protected from cytotoxicity (P < 0.0001). The TBAR production decreased significantly: -33% without irradiation and -34% after irradiation with 5 J/cm2 (P = 0.008). Superoxide dismutase activity, however, decreased after supplementing with Zn: -26% without irradiation and -20% after UV-A irradiation (P = 0.017). The antioxidant properties of Zn are thus apparently independent of superoxide dismutase activity.
